During the Speech from the Throne earlier today the Government has this message for Sporting Bodies.

One of the ways to better utilize the Government’s financial influence is to make an investment in our society by assisting community and sporting clubs to become self-sufficient.

Accordingly, in exchange for creating sustainable and transparent financial controls, the Government will provide loan guarantees to community and sporting clubs to upgrade their facilities, develop programmes to serve our youth, spur entrepreneurship and ensure greater community outreach in their parishes and neighborhoods.
